3 1. Introduction The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), in cooperation with Kendall County and the City of Boerne, conducted an interactive online survey asking the public to share their thoughts and ideas on the transportation and mobility challenges facing Boerne and Kendall County. The survey was just one of the ways the Study Team (TxDOT, City of Boerne, and Kendall County) engaged people in the planning effort for the a feasibility study. The goal of the is to identify viable transportation corridors to include in local and regional long-range planning. The Study was inspired by the need to address numerous concerns, including: Past, present, and future population growth; Traffic congestion; Lack of east-west corridors in the area; and Heavy traffic through downtown Boerne. The is a data-driven planning project that is based on technical data (traffic data, environmental constraints, etc.), as well as public involvement and feedback. The final product will be a feasibility report that identifies recommended concepts to aid in local and regional long-range planning. Downtown Boerne 1 March 2018

4 2. Logistics and Outreach The survey was available from November 8, 2017 to December 4, 2017 online at txdot.gov, keywords. It took approximately 5 to 7 minutes to complete, and was available online 24/7. The survey was advertised via the following methods: Open House An Open House was held for the on Wednesday, November 8, Approximately 163 project stakeholders attended the meeting. The survey was unveiled at the meeting and i-pads were available at the meeting for attendees to complete the survey. Palm Cards Palm cards Interactive Survey Station at the Open House were handed out at the November 8, 2017 Open House. The cards contained a link to the survey for those wishing to complete it later. Go-to-Them Meeting On Monday, November 20, 2017, Study Team members were available in-person at the Patrick Heath Public Library (451 N. Main St., Boerne, Texas) for a three-hour period to help community members complete the survey. Notifications On November 17, 2017, an invitation was sent to individuals included on the Study s Stakeholder Database. A second was sent to these individuals on November 27, 2017, extending the survey commenting period through December 4, 2017 (originally ended on November 27, 2017). Website Postings A link to the survey was published on TxDOT s website at Media An article describing the survey was posted on November 17, 2017 in the Boerne Star newspaper. 2 March 2018

5 3. Survey Summary stakeholders weighed in with their opinions on transportation and mobility challenges in the Boerne and Kendall County study area. There was a total of 1,124 participants in the survey, and an additional 711 persons who opened the survey link but never progressed to the next screen. Most participants (approximately 97 percent) were residents of the City of Boerne and/or Kendall County, with only approximately 3 percent residing in other areas (Figure 1 and Table 1). Figure 1: Residency Locations of Survey Participants 3 March 2018

6 Table 1: Residency Locations of Survey Participants County Zip Code(s) # of Survey % of Survey Participants* Participants Bandera % Bexar % Collin % Comal 78130, 78132, % Gillespie % Kendall 78004, 78006, 78013, % Kerr % Mason, Menard % McMullen % Medina 78009, % *395 of the survey participants did not provide their zip code. When asked, What is your primary reason for traveling on SH 46., the largest percentage of participants (approximately 34 percent) said it was for shopping and running errands. Another large percentage (approximately 24 percent each) use State Highway (SH) 46 for: (1) commuting to and from work, and (2) for other undisclosed reasons (Figure 2). 24% 24% 11% 0% 7% 34% Commute to/from work Shopping/errands Commute to/from school Hauling freight I do not use SH 46 Other Figure 2: Reasons for Traveling on SH 46 4 March 2018

7 3.1 Issues and Goals Participants were asked to rate a list of issues and goals on how well they thought each capture and address the issues facing the Boerne and Kendall County community. Each issues and goal were rated on a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 representing the least important and 5 representing the most important. Issues Of the issues provided, participants ranked traffic congestion (4.1 out of 5.0) and population growth (4.0 out of 5.0) as the most important issues in the study area. Heavy truck traffic was ranked with the lowest score (3.4 out of 5.0) (Figure 3). Figure 3: Importance of Issues in the Study Area Participants were also given the opportunity to provide comments on each issue. A representative of comments received during this question are presented below. A complete listing of comments is provided in Appendix A. 5 March 2018

8 Population Growth Especially true on south side. Growth eastward along [SH] 46 has increased traffic with minimal routes to connect to I-10. Too many homes being built without the infrastructure fixed first. Population growth is not the problem. Inefficient movement of people is the problem. Traffic Congestion Area in front of Champion [High School] is a mess. Ammann entrance onto [SH] 46 is terrifying. I try to avoid areas near the H-E-B on west Blanco near IH 10. The traffic surrounding Herff Ranch Boulevard all the way to Herff Ranch Road is ridiculous! Congestion would be substantially reduced if all SH 46 westbound trucks to I-10 were diverted down [FM] Primarily on [SH} 46 east of Boerne and on Main Street. Widen already placed roads and travel would flow more easily. Lack of Corridors You don t need more roads! You need passing lanes on [SH] 46. More options for routes around the developed areas of Boerne are needed. What about widening the existing corridors adding turn lanes where appropriate? Yes, there is a need but NOT through the middle of quiet rural areas that would be ruined if a corridor is bulldozed through. Need more access routes into San Antonio. There needs to be an established and enforced truck route around Boerne. There needs to be more north-south corridors other than Main St. and School St. Heavy Truck Traffic River Road and Main Street (downtown) is especially a problem. By banning through truck traffic in the middle of Boerne, we would greatly reduce noise, pollution, and traffic, making it overall a much more pleasant town again. Route them around Boerne, not through it! 6 March 2018

9 Goals Participants were also asked to rate project goals identified by the public for development of future transportation projects within the study area. All the goals were ranked high in importance, with preserving nature being the most important (ranked 4.3 out of 5.0), and coordinating with the City of Boerne s Thoroughfare Plan as the least important (ranked 3.7 out of 5.0) (Figure 4). Figure 4: Importance of Project Goals in the Study Area Like for issues, participants were given the opportunity to provide comments on each project goal. A representative of comments received are presented below, while a complete listing is provided in Appendix A. Minimize Downtown Impacts You don t want to ruin downtown, but if you route traffic too far from downtown, it will affect it! Yes, River Road should be kept as a safe, minimal usage road Historic Downtown should be left as that historic. Preserve Nature Protect our water recharge areas. Water quality is a big concern. We need parks, green spaces, and play areas for children to explore. Roads in undeveloped areas just lead to sprawl and degradation of open space and scenic views. Avoid new construction over areas like Cascade Caverns. 7 March 2018

10 Keep Local Culture More access will cause more development of corporate/retail real estate. There would be minimal impact if a bypass was west of Boerne. This will only happen if pass-through traffic can move more easily. Coordinate with City Plan Need to also coordinate with Fair Oaks Ranch. Of course, but don t let an outdated plan dictate what is best for our future. Local plans should take priority; county or state plans should be based on/expand from local plans. 3.2 Tradeoffs The survey asked participants to prioritize the issues they think are most important for the by sharing their opinions on a set of provided tradeoffs. The results of this poll are summarized in Figure 5. Figure 5: Tradeoffs of Concept Design Options 8 March 2018

11 Most participants (approximately 61.2 percent) said they would prefer a faster route that is longer in length versus a shorter route that takes more time. Over three-quarters of participants (approximately 77.8 percent) said they would prefer a concept with a higher project cost that addressed study area issues in the long-term, rather than a concept with a lower project cost that only addresses issues in the short-term. Around half of the participants (approximately 54.9 percent) prefer to minimize impacts to the natural environmental, rather than minimizing impacts to historic resources. However, over a quarter of respondents (approximately 27.2 percent) were neutral to this question and did not choose one tradeoff over the other. The last tradeoff involved the preference of designing a controlled-access facility (e.g. a highway with less access and higher speeds) versus a non-controlled-access facility (e.g. a roadway with more access but less speed). Responses to this tradeoff were nearly the same, with approximately 41.6 percent of participants preferring a controlled-access facility, and approximately 44.5 percent of participants favoring a non-controlled-access facility. Participants were also allowed to submit additional comments on the tradeoffs. A representative of comments received is summarized below; a complete listing of comments is included in Appendix A. Fastest Route vs. Shortest Routes Traffic light avoidance is a major factor in choosing a route. Faster is better. However, accessibility to businesses and other place[s] is key. Our time is valuable, so minimize waste of our time and fuel. The shortest and/or fastest routes offer neither the charm or delight of a meandering hill country road. Short-Term vs. Long-Term I think the best objective is to build low-cost short-term improvements that are designed to facilitate future improvements. Cheapest short-term always ends up to be more expensive in the long-term. This area is growing way too fast for us to be short sided we need to be prepared for what is coming and investigation appropriately. Historic vs. Natural If the loops are far enough out, it won t impact historic preservation or natural preservation. Find a way to balance both. Both are critically important to quality of life in our community. The more we can preserve the few natural areas we have left, the better. 9 March 2018

12 Controlled vs. Non-Controlled Access We already have I-10 adjacent to town we don t need another high speed access. I think you will need to come up with a hybrid solution to ensure safety for all. As long as the non controlled access is north of Boerne, this would make sense. 3.3 Concept Responses For this question, survey participants were asked to review the potential Kendall Gateway Study roadway concepts and respond if they believe they should or should not be a priority. A total of 728 survey participants responded to this question. There were three concepts presented in each of the Northeast, Northwest, Southeast, and Southwest quadrants, as shown in Figure 6. Figure 6: Overall Concept Map Potential constraints of each concept were provided to help users make their responses, including potential acres of new right-of-way (ROW) required, number of stream crossings, number of acres within the floodplain, and estimated number of potential residential or commercial impacts. The results of this question, including the number of participants who responded yes (i.e. they believe the concept should be a priority) and no (i.e. they do not believe the concept should be a priority) is summarized in Table March 2018

13 Table 2: Concept Preference Should this be a priority? # of Participants Map Quad Concept Yes No No Response ( Priority ) ( Non-Priority ) ( Neutral ) Northwest Northeast Southwest Southeast NW Outer 132 (18%) 183 (25%) 413 (57%) NW Middle 166 (23%) 167 (23%) 395 (54%) NW Inner 140 (19%) 140 (19%) 448 (62%) NE Outer 148 (20%) 190 (26%) 390 (54%) NE Middle 194 (27%) 172 (24%) 362 (50%) NE Inner 258 (35%) 166 (23%) 304 (42%) SW Outer 123 (17%) 173 (24%) 432 (59%) SW Middle 166 (23%) 157 (22%) 405 (56%) SW Inner 146 (20%) 131 (18%) 451 (62%) SE Outer 137 (19%) 241 (33%) 350 (48%) SE Middle 299 (41%) 196 (27%) 233 (32%) SE Inner 307 (42%) 161 (22%) 260 (36%) Out of the four quadrants, the largest number of responses was received for concepts in the Southeast Quadrant. The Northeast Quadrant received the second highest number of responses. The concept that had the largest number of responses as a priority concept was the Southeast Inner Concept, followed by the Southeast Middle Concept. The Southeast Outer Concept received the largest number of responses as a non-priority concept, followed by the Southeast Middle Concept. The Northwest Inner Concept and Southwest Inner Concept received the fewest number of responses; these are considered more neutral concepts. In the Northwest Quadrant, the majority of survey participants did not respond to this question. Out of the three concepts, the Northwest Middle Concept received the most responses as a priority (166 votes, 23 percent of participants), while the Northwest Outer Concept received the most responses as a non-priority (183 votes, 25 percent of participants) (Figure 7). 11 March 2018

14 Priority Non-Priority Neutral 18% 23% 19% 57% 25% 54% 23% 62% 19% Northwest Outer Figure 7: Concept Preferences in the Northwest Quadrant In the Northeast Quadrant, most of the survey participants were neutral (i.e. did not provide a response) to the Northeast Outer Concept. The Northeast Inner Concept received the most responses as a priority concept (approximately 35 percent of survey participants ). All three concepts received a nearly equal number of responses as not being a priority (Figure 8). Priority Non-Priority Neutral Northwest Middle Northwest Inner 54% 20% 50% 27% 42% 35% 26% 23% 23% Northeast Outer Northeast Middle Northeast Inner Figure 8: Concept Preferences in the Northeast Quadrant 12 March 2018

15 In the Southwest Quadrant, many participants were neutral to all three concepts (i.e. they did not respond to this question). None of the concepts received more than a quarter percentage of survey responses as either a priority or non-priority concept (Figure 9). Priority Non-Priority Neutral 17% 23% 20% 59% 24% 56% 21% 62% 18% Southwest Outer Southwest Middle Southwest Inner Figure 9: Concept Preferences in the Southwest Quadrant In the Southeast Quadrant, a large percentage of survey participants chose the Southeast Middle Concept (approximately 41 percent) and Southeast Inner Concept (approximately 42 percent) as priority concepts. On the contrary, a much lower percentage of people chose the Southeast Outer Concept (approximately 19 percent) as a priority concept; this concept received the most number of responses as a non-priority concept (approximately 33 percent). Priority Non-Priority Neutral 48% 19% 32% 41% 36% 42% 33% Southeast Outer 27% Southeast Middle 22% Southeast Inner Figure 8: Concept Preferences in the Southwest Quadrant 13 March 2018

16 Like the other questions, participants were given the opportunity to submit additional comments regarding the concepts; these are summarized below and included in Appendix A. Northwest Outer Concept This would be much better for long term and much less floodable in catastrophic floods This has the least disruption to where people have made their homes and business. Far out seems like it would be the best. This moves traffic further away from downtown. Northwest Middle Concept Too impactive on Boerne Lake area. This is necessary but lower priority than the SE and NE concepts. Too close to IH 10. Northwest Inner Concept I like this concept as a lower speed type route to compliment the outer loop. Keep traffic outside [of downtown], but as close in as possible. Best option to minimize access points on I-10 and environmental impacts. Northeast Outer Concept Northeast Outer concept appears to be the most needed route. There is no traffic here. Adding a highway would just bring more traffic. This MUST be done SOON! Traffic needs to get diverted OFF Boerne Main St. ASAP. Some of this land is habitat of Texas songbird. Also I am concerned about residential impacts. Northeast Middle Concept Too much bicycle traffic, crooked road. Not needed if westbound traffic on 46E can take the southern bypass. Helps northeast communities to get to Boerne or farther northwest. Northeast Inner Concept This route of the 3 would do the most to relieve traffic congestion in Boerne. Too close to town. Not necessary. We already have adequate access with Adler and Esser/474 Road. Southwest Outer Concept Given long-term needs and cost and drainage, why wouldn t you pick this one vs the one closer in? A larger loop is better due to the degree of anticipated growth. Yes, any option west of I-10 would be better. 14 March 2018

17 Southwest Middle Concept This option would appear to be the least expensive and have least impact to residential or commercial property. Too close to IH 10. Southwest Inner Concept This comes into IH10 too close to Boerne. Bypass needs to be farther south. Why does this concept connect at Bucee s rather than opposite the SE Inner Concept? Southeast Outer Concept Not necessary because of easy access to I-10 from 46 via Ralph Fair. Too many stream crossings!! Too much disruption to the untouched natural landscape and open ranchland. There are at least two aquifer recharge zones within feet of, if not under, this route just west of Cibolo Ridge Trail. A seemingly better approach to divert Cordillera traffic off 46. Southeast Middle Concept Concept cutting through Kendall Pointe would destroy small community lifestyle. This route when connected to other quadrants does very little to relieve traffic congestion in Boerne. This is the best option, but I believe it should tie into Hwy 46 a little further east of Boerne. This would appear to be the least expensive option, while impacting fewer residential properties. Southeast Inner Concept This would be a better option for quick access to 46 and the schools off 46. Construction of a road here would destroy a fragile environment and negatively affect homesteads. You have mapped this right over Cascade Caverns sink, a large cave on the west side of the Cascade Caverns property. This concept would allow it to connect with IH 10 s newest construction and help traffic flow. 15 March 2018

18 4. Additional Comments Lastly, the survey asked participants for additional comments on the. These are included in Appendix A. Participants were given the opportunity to provide their address to be added to the Study s stakeholder database and to receive updates throughout the project development process. As a result, 363 addresses were collected and added to the database. 16 March 2018

19 Appendix A Comments Received

20 Issues & Goals 1 11/9/2017 Issues- Population Growth Especially true on south side. 2 11/10/2017 Issues- Population Growth 3 11/10/2017 Issues- Population Growth City of Boerne pushed growth east along 46 and south along 10 without a thought for cars on the road. We travel west and south and can avoid the unfortunate mess of 46. Particularly into San Antonio... fix that and 46 and Developmsnt halt before moving fwd... government influenced by greedy persists developers has gotten us here and if you don t slow growth then any bandwidth increase will only incentivize more development /13/2017 Issues- Population Growth I make plans to travel after 9 AM and return home before 4 pm. 5 11/14/2017 Issues- Population Growth I purchased my property in the "south east quadrant" between Cascade Cavern and Old Fredericksburg Road so as to specifically avoid the population density and traffic as well as the traffic "by-ways". I did not want a major traffic "by-ways/arterials in my front or side yard!! 6 11/15/2017 Issues- Population Growth Excessive density in development has been allowed and NOT controlled by city or county officials. 7 11/15/2017 Issues- Population Growth Biggest time I avoid areas is during school traffic. I will go completely different routes. 8 11/15/2017 Issues- Population Growth 9 11/15/2017 Issues- Population Growth I conduct most of my shopping in Bulverde due to the traffic and congestion on 46 to get into Boerne. Basically, spending my tax dollars in another city/county. Traffic on 46East is horrible and dangerous. Visibility when turning from Los Indios onto 46 is a nightmare 10 11/15/2017 Issues- Population Growth It is taking longer to get to places due to slow traffic especially at certain times /15/2017 Issues- Population Growth Growth eastward along hwy 46 has increased traffic with minimal routes to connect to l /16/2017 Issues- Population Growth Too many houses are being built /16/2017 Issues- Population Growth The manpower and time put into planning our roads should have resulted in less traffic and roads being built BEFORE developments and companies were brought into Boerne /17/2017 Issues- Population Growth Traffic congestion is terrible especially at 46 and /17/2017 Issues- Population Growth 16 11/17/2017 Issues- Population Growth Way too much lobby strength by the developers. It is wrong for the developers to hold local districts hostage to their legislative influence! TXDOT has not managed the traffic lights to meet the additional growth, which causes vehicle to set at traffic lights for extended periods, wasting fuel and time. Poor management. In addition, TXDOT has torn up exit/entry ramps, built new ones that were not designed correctly and required them to be torn up again. Waste of manpower and money /17/2017 Issues- Population Growth IH-10 south bound congestion at Leon Springs has caused my travel time to work to increase from 32 minutes to 45 minutes in the mornings. In the evenings, traffic congestion northwest bound has caused me to sue service road from 1604 north to the Dominion-on ramp A-1

21 18 11/18/2017 Issues- Population Growth Being retired, we never leave the house before 0900 hours due to school traffic on Cascade Caverns Rd /18/2017 Issues- Population Growth Primarily on Hwy. 46 east of Boerne 20 11/19/2017 Issues- Population Growth The city/county addressed the traffic needs we had on the north side by the Herff Rd. improvement /19/2017 Issues- Population Growth Had to change my work schedule because coming from San Antonio to Boerne now takes twice as long 22 11/20/2017 Issues- Population Growth Too many homes being built without the infrastructure fixed first /20/2017 Issues- Population Growth 24 11/20/2017 Issues- Population Growth People do not observe the speed limits. We need more police to ticket, and then maybe people will slow down and be polite. Population growth, hjighly encouraged by both city and county officials, is the primary problem affecting all else. If officials choose not to place some controls on it, we all suffer. At this rate, I will soon be looking for somewhere else to live /20/2017 Issues- Population Growth I now avoid using I 10. I use traffic aps to find alternate routes. I plan my weekends to stay at home 26 11/20/2017 Issues- Population Growth Subdivisions are too dense. Require larger lots in new developments /20/2017 Issues- Population Growth Yes, I stay off the main streets and take my shortcuts down School street, Herff Road, Oak park /21/2017 Issues- Population Growth It makes me consider alternate routes avoiding Main Street 29 11/23/2017 Issues- Population Growth Need more regulations for low density housing or require all households to have a resident that works in Kendall County. No more large KB-like subdivisions /25/2017 Issues- Population Growth Growth allowed has been too fast and with little regard to actual impact /25/2017 Issues- Population Growth Particularly around school drop off and pickup times /25/2017 Issues- Population Growth Particularly around area schools /25/2017 Issues- Population Growth Stop letting Home Builders and Businesses buy properties, to build new homes and strip centers. People that have gone to school here and have lived here most of their lives, see their town grow into a suburb of San Antonio. It sickens me. By letting big business come in and build, they have put small, home town businesses out of business. Yes it created jobs, but all those jobs wouldn t have been needed if you wouldn t have let Home Builders come in and start buying up land to build big neighborhoods 34 11/26/2017 Issues- Population Growth poses a serious problem with no relief in sight 35 11/26/2017 Issues- Population Growth I plan my travel to avoid traffic congestion at specific times of the day /27/2017 Issues- Population Growth Agreed. A-2

22 37 11/27/2017 Issues- Population Growth Why allow building permits for subdivisions when you know that the infrastructure and roads can't handle the growth already here. Original roads should've been widened years ago. Taking people's land for new roads that don't even exist, such as putting in a bypass is completely illegal due to the roads benefiting a builder. Texas Law!!!!! Boerne has crooked people in office who don't give a crap to landowners who have lived in the town for over 25 years. It's disgusting what has happened to this town /27/2017 Issues- Population Growth 39 11/28/2017 Issues- Population Growth Too much commercial residential development 40 11/28/2017 Issues- Population Growth 41 11/28/2017 Issues- Population Growth The rapid growth of new homes east of Boerne, with 46 East being the only route to/from Boerne, has, and will continue to create tremendous traffic congestion on 46. It will become a true nightmare when the redevelopment begins shortly... The powers that be for the city of Boerne have allowed unrestricted growth to destroy the quiet small city that most of us moved here to enjoy. Growth is inevitable but the speed with which the growth is being allowed is unforgivable Uncontrolled growth is ruining the quiet Boerne most of us moved here to enjoy. Some growth is inevitable but it needs to be slower 42 11/28/2017 Issues- Population Growth School traffic has slowed my commute time unless I time my trips to avoid those times of congestion /28/2017 Issues- Population Growth After living in Boerne for 21 years, I MOVED because of the traffic and overcrowding! Our Commissioner's Court never says "NO" to any developer. They ruined Boerne. I left /28/2017 Issues- Population Growth Population growth is not the problem. Inefficient movement of people is the problem /30/2017 Issues- Population Growth Exit 543 construction during the past 2 years has caused me to consider alternate routes because of the lack of travel management during construction. In fact, TXDOT gets a "F" grade because it appears no thought was given to enhancing traffic flow during the construction. The traffic light is grossly out-ofsync with typical traffic load, resulting in long wait periods for non-existent traffic to flow while sitting, sitting, sitting for the light to turn green. Dozens of cars will wait and wait. Contracts need to include an incentive clause for traffic flow enhancement during construction /30/2017 Issues- Population Growth I live on the North end of town, and traffic hasn't changed /1/2017 Issues- Population Growth Not really. There are no alternatives 48 12/2/2017 Issues- Population Growth Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches /2/2017 Issues- Population Growth Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches.no toll roads!! 50 12/4/2017 Issues- Population Growth 51 11/8/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion I avoid town at all cost. It could be eased if we quit allowing massive development of commercial and residential properties in this area... "If you build it they will come" A-3

23 52 11/9/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Area in front of champion hs is a mess. Ammann entrance on to 46 is terrifying /9/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Many times I have to wait through two light cycles at 46 & /10/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion I am retired so I try to do all my San Antonio errands between 10 am and 3 pm /10/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion I try to avoid areas near the H-E-B on west Blanco near IH I /15/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion 57 11/15/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion 58 11/15/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Definitely. Often the times needed to travel for many are the worst. Again due to poor planning by city and county officials. 46 school traffic for both elementary and high school is horrible! we need another artery besides 46 coming in and out of Boerne. See previous comments. Too many subdivision have been allowed to liter this corridor making it unsafe. Large trucks from the various developments make it dangers to people using the road and existing land owners and businesses on it! 59 11/15/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion We no longer go to Boerne during certain hours during the day and on weekends, avoid it all together /15/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Yes, especially when schools let out /15/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion 62 11/15/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Morning traffic on 46 near town is an issue in both directions. As growth along 46 continues it is getting worse. Too many houses being built before there are roads and schools capable of taking care of the number of people. And not enough water ever for the number of people being brought in /16/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Stop building houses and finish the construction on I10 and the traffic will get better /16/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Road conditions in Boerne are about 10 years behind population growth /16/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion 66 11/16/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion 67 11/17/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion 68 11/17/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion 46 and 10 horrible. I can't avoid. I live on 46. It determines when I plan on leaving and moving around Boerne due to traffic when Champion HS lets out, as well as everyone coming home from the middle schools. The traffic surrounding Herf Ranch Boulevard all the way to Herf Ranch Rd is ridiculous!! On a normal day, around 7:30 to 9 am, it wi take 30 min to get from the first light, coming into Boerne on 46 from Bergheim, until you get to Herf Rd. And it starts up again around 4pm to 6:30. Sometimes this time is greater. main street is much busier and now many smaller neighborhood streets are beginning to see increases in thru traffic. A-4

24 69 11/17/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Congestion could be substantially reduced if all SH-46 westbound trucks to I-10 were diverted (NO through-town traffic on 46 ) down Eastbound SH46 truck traffic likewise sent to Yeah, they are inconvenienced, but they pose a grave safety hazard in town. Furthermore, in the current state for traffic it would have helped to put Herff Rd through to I-10 at Main; between bank and Verizon. It was extremely short sighted to drop all that traffic onto Main when the potential exists to take it straight to I /17/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Fair oaks ranch has limited entry/exit roads in and out of the city. Ralph Fair and Fair Oaks Parkway at I10 have heavy traffic. So have stared using Dietz. However they are now putting in a school and additional churches. So that road will also be impacted. Very difficult and time consuming to get out of the city of Fair Oaks. We do NOT need additional traffic comng down those roads by non FOR residents /17/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Much of the congestion is due to bad planning (ie. start & finish times during peak traffic periods). Entry & exit locations from access road selection has caused backups on IH-10 and the roads going east-west between them. Signal lights timing is not correct, making vehicles set for extended periods /17/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion IH-10 south bound congestion at Leon Springs has caused my travel time to work to increase from 32 minutes to 45 minutes in the mornings. In the evenings, traffic congestion northwest bound has caused me to use service road from 1604 north to the Dominion-on ramp 73 11/18/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion With the hundreds of new folks moving to Kendall Co. the traffic is bad and will get much worse.you know this. Not good /18/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Hwy 46 between HEB and Chili's is a disaster. The lines at time block the HEB exits 75 11/18/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion For the past 12 years I have commuted from Boerne to San Antonio. Although the drive has become longer by an average of 10 minutes each way, the traffic in Boerne is on congested in a very small region such as the overpass bridge of 46/I-10 as well as Cascade Caverns Road /18/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Primarily on Hwy 46 east of Boerne and on Main Street 77 11/18/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Some of the congestion is due to construction- road & building /19/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion I10 needs more, useable lanes. Not HOV lanes /19/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion 80 11/19/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Work at the intersection of IH10 and Cascades Caverns is the only thing that has changed my driving habits. If 2 turning lanes had been added 5 years ago, this would not have reached the congestion it had. Too much traffic of HWY 46East with all the schools and new neighborhood housing construction. Main Street is ridiculous! Can't safely make a left hand turn /20/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion SH 46 at Esser/Herff Rd is horrible. 46 needs to be widened. A-5

25 82 11/20/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion The neighborhoods need to stop being developed in mainly one direction. The traffic can be unbearable /20/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion I leave for work at 5AM and return at 4 to avoid traffic /20/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion require traffic studies (with suggestions or offers to minimize congestion) before permitting a subdivision 85 11/20/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion I commute in from New Braunfels. The congestion at Amman Rd can cause inconsistent scheduling for early appointments. I'm not ever sure what the wait time will be on any given weekday /20/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Not so much because I try to stay home using high traffic times /22/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Downtown is a mess 88 11/23/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion 89 11/25/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Mainly during school start/end hours Need more regulations for low density housing or require all households to have a resident that works in Kendall County.

You must add 2 hrs a day to travel time. unacceptable 94 11/27/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Widen already placed roads and travel would flow more easily /27/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion 96 11/28/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion the Hwy 46 traffic east of Boerne (around Champion HS) has become very bad. Additional traffic lights were necessary, but slow things down. South of downtown and downtown pretty crowded 97 11/28/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Too many people, too many cars, not enough roads to handle it all 98 11/28/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Too many people, too many cars 99 11/28/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion As noted on the previous question, yes /28/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion I lived 3 miles from HEB. Got too difficult to get there and then there may not be a place to park. I left Boerne because of overcrowding. A-6

26 101 11/28/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Again, congestion is the product of people moving in many directions at the same time. We don't need more roads for more cars, we need a more efficient way to move many people at the same time. A primary component of the traffic congestion issues in Boerne surround children going to school (by private vehicle) at the same time parents are travelling to work. If more children were able to safely walk to appropriately located schools or encouraged to ride the bus, there would be less vehicles on the road and therefore less congestion. Same would be true to adult commuters. Mass Transit! /2/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Traffic is growing faster than the supporting infrastructure. Example: Boerne s main intersection at SH 46 and IH 10. Conditions approaching gridlock exist there in the evenings. SH 46 on the east side of Boerne is also heavily congested. People move to Boerne to escape San Antonio congestion, not to see it recreated /2/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches /2/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches.no toll roads!! /4/2017 Issues- Traffic Congestion It could be eased if we quit allowing massive development of commercial and residential properties in this area... "If you build it they will come" /9/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors I see that 46 & 10 access is being fixed but 87 south really needs to be addressed too /9/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /10/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors I believe the solution should be to expand 46 as has been done with Expand the lanes, build overpasses, exit and entrance ramps, etc. so 46 becomes a major thoroughfare. There is a need for a whole plan that includes n/s and e/w corridors. Primarily in my driving experience the heavy traffic comes from the east and is going south. Perhaps what s needed are ways to move that traffic south other than Herff and Main St /10/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Slow down broth intentionally until this is funded and done /12/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /14/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /14/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors You don't need more roads! You need passing lanes on Highway 46. Instead of building roads across ranch land and over caves (hello! there are dozens of caves down the Cibolo creek) you could just widen the roads we already have. More options for routes around the developed areas of Boerne are needed. Care must be taken to makes these routes far enough away as to not impact the small-town rural feel of the city including many of the ranches around the city center. I understand the traffic patters. those corridos should not infringe on the peaceful enjoyment of the rural lifestyle afforded outlying homes and, farms and ranches. those corridors can take the traffic load off the current road system while staying as closer to the more dense population areas while accommodating the rerouting of the additional traffic causing a northerly turn as close in to the east side Boerne as reasonably possible /15/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors The current corridors are perhaps adequate in terms of location but not in design or size. A-7

27 114 11/15/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors See proior comments... plus existing corridor insufficient to a city/town that has not planned well for growth for schools, utilities, etc /15/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors All the way from Bergheim to Pipe Creek. Extremely dangerous, narrow, winding lanes /15/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /15/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Turning on and entering Hwy. 46 has become more dangerous over the last 3 years. Hwy. 46 needs to be 4 lanes with more turn lanes. 46 is the only corridor for all the new residential areas to access I10. Choke point at Herff and also at Main intersection /15/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors we don't need more roads. we need less density in future development /15/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Ralph fair road is already an option /15/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /16/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors This is not a problem for me /16/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors This depends on where the lead /17/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Need more access routes into San Antonio /17/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /17/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Yes there is a need but NOT through the middle of quiet rural areas that would be ruined if a corridor is bulldozed through. North or boerne or using Ralph fair road if the only sensible thing to do. Ralph fair is already a major road. Making it four lanes would take a minimum financial outlay as well as minimal impact on the neighboring areas. There are sufficient corridors now. TXDot needs make better use of those that exist, not carve up property to satisfy what developers messed up. There seems to be no coordination between job sites, which causes one construction site to adversely impact the next. It this a coordinated project between the Blanco exit in Boerne going south to Ralph Fair Road? If it is, you could sure not tell it from how they are compounding problems up and down IH /17/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors North of Boerne would be the best alternative. Using RT 46 is busy but not a problem /17/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors North/South Corridors also /17/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /18/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Yes. Following Hwy. 46 through Boerne is no fun. a southerby-pass from hwy 46 west to IH 10 northbound and 46 west at IH-10...make it a parkway not a roadway with no access for anything but residences, no service roads...parkway ala Wurzbach Pkwy in SA from IH-35 to NW Military Hwy /18/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors The real need is to provide traffic on east Hwy 46 with better access to SA and Kerrville /18/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Cibolo Nature Center should be used BEFORE homes are disturbed. They have made a handsome profit on their sale to developing, now let them help support what they brought in /18/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors What about widening the existing corridors- adding turn lanes where appropriate? A-8

28 133 11/19/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors We need a relief route for hwy 46 east of boerne but I strongly disagree with placing a highway over portions of cascade caverns. I feel that the proposed loop needs to be further out from Boerne or by the time it's finished it will be insufficient & crowded /19/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors More lanes are needed on I10. Functional, mass use lanes. Not HOV lanes /19/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Past studies have shown that 60% of traffic from SH46 commutes south. Another percent goes into Boerne, to HEB or other destinations along Main. While it was not readily displayed, your own study shows that south bound traffic on SH 46 turns on to 3351 and west bound traffic on SH46, now turns on to Herff Rd and the new cut-off, before reaching Main St.. Showing that 30% of traffic into Boerne turns north and 10% south, is misleading in that it fails to mention the amount of southbound traffic that has already turned on 3351 and Herff, giving the impression that most of the traffic is northbound, which is false. Why is that? One conclusion is that the city has been pushing for utilizing the ROW through Esperanza or adjoining developments, as well as the prospect of investors west of FM474. This does not make for good road planning /19/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors What they really need are more lane on the /19/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors More business zones /20/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Depends on where they are located /20/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors There needs to be an established and enforced truck route around Boerne. Things are becoming dangerous /20/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors 46 is a problem that will get worse. Need an alternate route or bypass /20/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors There needs to be more north - south corridors other than Main St. and School St /20/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Especially between Boerne and Bergheim /20/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /22/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /22/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /22/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /23/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors We don't need more people coming in Corridors are needed but not near our schools. Cascade Caverns road is not a good choice. Drop a little more south to Deitz-Elkhorn to loop around to 46 East. 1) no. there is a need to improve flow of traffic on to / off of the interstate where existing east-wesr corridors intersect 2) there is a need for a new north-south corridor for local traffic, vice I-10 1) we need an alternate north-south corridor 2) we need better access to I-10 at points where existing east-west corisors intersect Not if it going to further destroy the beauty of the Hill Country and the Natural resourses. Stop the growth!!!! A-9

29 148 11/26/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Kendall County absolutely needs a loop around Boerne and 46 must be 4 lane /26/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /27/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /27/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /27/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /27/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors NIMBY!!! Current E/W through the new Herff road to join Hwy 46 East extension and it's, soon to be, extension to join I10w is sufficient. The problem is that BISD insists on building in the E/W corridor areas. Recommend all new schools be on the west side of I10. The area that they want the corridors built on will be tearing through/down family own houses and properties. If you want to improve the problem - stop selling to developers that build cookie cutter houses and improve the road system already in place. Existing roads with easements already in place could be expanded to handle the increase in traffic such as Ralph Fair Rd. Highway 46 should have been rerouted years ago and NOT connected on Main Street. Herff Road should have been a connection to 46 and not dumped more traffic on Main. TXDoT does not use foresight /27/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Boerne needs to widen already in place roads (HWY 46 and FM 3351), make these roads 4 lane. Taking people's land and putting a road through my parents and my home is completely unacceptable. May be just a structure to those with no heart and pockets being filled illegally, but it is a home to us. We have lived there for over 25 years. Home is where the heart is and any bypass through, or near our property would shatter ours!!!!!!!!!! My parents are dealing with cancer at the moment and don't need this stress of possibly losing their home!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's completely disgusting that they were never informed and never received any word a proposed bypass would take some of their land and home /27/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors There MUST be a workaround so that why 46 isn't the only option! /27/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors There arguably needs to be a loop that encircles Boerne so as to not direct additional traffic from outlying areas thru existing residential and commercial areas /28/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors NO. do not traverse private property. Boerne has two east west thorofares /28/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /28/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /28/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors There is definitely a need but NOT through the middle of quiet country areas. Ralph Fair Road already has the necessary space to expand to four lanes to handle most of the traffic without destroying quiet neighborhoods Needs to be corridors but through Ralph Fair to the south as it is already in place and theres room for four lanes. Far north Boerne to minimize destruction of quiet country neighborhoods It would take some of the traffic using 1604 and put it on highway 46. That will only cause more traffic, congestion, and truck travel. We will be further destroying our hill country environment. A-10

30 161 11/28/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /28/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Beginning in 1972 there was talk of a loop around Boerne to get traffic (diesel 18 wheelers, etc.) off of Main St. Never done. Boerne has been ruined! I left. See Traffic Congestion comment. Corridors for the sake of convenience are not smart planning. This is a temporal issue, not a spatial issue /28/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors The search for corridors will put great pressure on what is already diminishing green space /30/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /30/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors In our opinion, the more relevant need is an east/west highway from northern Kendall County (Comfort area) to the IH-35 corridor (perhaps somewhere north of San Marcos). I feel like there is a strong need for another east/west state hwy. that needs to run parallel to the north of SH 46. I feel like it will be very beneficial to be situated between the Comfort area (I 10) & the San Marcus area (I 35) /2/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches /2/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors No toll roads!!widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches /3/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors /3/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors Only on the North and East Side of Boerne /4/2017 Issues- Lack of Corridors The ship has sailed on this.

And it s still problematic as that is the preferred direction. There is too much on Main Street and these trucks should be re-routed to 46 east BEFORE they even get to the Hwy 87 exit. I avoid even going into Boerne unless I absulotely HAVE to. Traffic and dangerous it presents are the driving force in my decision. I work in San Antonio, any access point into Boerne whether it's I10 or 46 I avoid it at all costs. Frankly 3351 through Fair Oaks is just as bad given poor planning, location of existing and new schools, and explosive growth! /15/2017 Issues- Heavy Truck traffic I avoid even going into Boerne unless I absulotely HAVE to.

Frankly 3351 through Fair Oaks is just as bad given poor planning, location of existing and new schools, and explosive growth! I am against the inteoduction of the dangers that a plant like Vulcan would create both for traffic safety and air quality. I have said on several occasions that highway 46 will eventually earn the "death loop" title 1604 had. The only thing that has helped 1604 shake that at least on this side of town is it's basically a parking lot due to overgrowth. A-11

They are destroying the roads, causing additional congestion and endangering pedestrian traffic (walkers, joggers and bikers).

Alternatives, many well outside of town are needed to route commuters around town. Yes, River Rd. Should be kept as a safe, minimal usage road, families and the Boerne ducks need to be kept safe from speeding cars and trucks.

At this point preserving a couple of blocks is going to be at the expense of many others /28/2017 Goals- Minimize Downtown Impacts Yes!!! /2/2017 Goals- Minimize Downtown Impacts Let s keep Boerne quaint and unique. Growth should not obliterate the very things that bring people here in the first place /2/2017 Goals- Minimize Downtown Impacts Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches /2/2017 Goals- Minimize Downtown Impacts /3/2017 Goals- Minimize Downtown Impacts /9/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature No toll roads!! Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches. I don't see impacts of Downtown Boerne other than the East Side. With the new added loop off 46 to Hwy 87, this has elevated traffic congestion in DT Boerne. Large high speed highways and thoroughfares will have significant negative impact on the native Hill Country look and feel of our beautiful county. A-15

35 256 11/10/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature There are two aquifer recharge caves next to cibolo ridge trail which stand to be dramatically impacted by one of the proposed routes! /10/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature This includes county property as well. Suburbanizing the county is giving away an asset for the short term gains of taxes while creating a flood hazard and diminishing aquifer recharge capacity /10/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Water Quality is a big concern /14/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Cibolo Creek is a major resource to the Boerne area. Bridges across this will be necessary to link to I-10 but must be minimized and moved as far out of town as possible. Much of the wildlife we enjoy in Woodland Ranch Estates comes from the Cibolo Creek area to the south /14/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature /15/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Please, lets preserve the rural nature of those areas of the community that still remain "rural" and enjoy quite open space. otherwise the community will loose its appeal and property values. There seems to be NO regard for our natural resources, land and especially WATER. One is unable to imagine how city planners can possibly foresee the water needs of the type of population expansion they seem to want /15/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Once these resources are gone, there is no getting them back. They are what make this place unique /15/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Boerene is quickly turning into a mini San Antonio with uncontrolled sprawl. This town and decision to put tax dollars over quality of living will force people to move /15/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature We need parks, green spaces and play areas for children to explore /15/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature THis is what draws people out here, makes our area unique. Do not destroy it or compromise it /15/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Concerned about keeping nature green for our birds and butterflies and bees. No more pollution! /15/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature /16/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature /16/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature This is my biggest concern that roads and development will not take in our most important aspect of our area-natural beauty! Once destroyed-old growth trees cut down and clear cut it can never be replaced! I urge you to stop and look at other high growth areas that enforced set backs and protection of their tress in order to retain the natural beauty! PLEASE! More transportation projects will adversely affect nature. I m not sure what natural resources you are referring to. A high density subdivision in the shore of Boerne City Lake is an environmental accident waiting to happen. And trucking poop from these subdivions to the treatment plant will turn Boerne into a Third World Country. A-16

Nature and the small downtown feel are what makes this town attractive. Keep as much area natural as possible. Create requirements around how many rooftops can be built that will eventually block the hill country hill tops... if there are no restrictions then land and nature areas will be turned into rooftop farms. this is a huge reason we can continue to claim we're a gateway to the hill country. Our walking trails, creeks, HERF FARM, Nature Center, parks are all huge assets to quality of life for our residents and tourism /17/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Absolutely--that includes Cibolo Nature Center, Cascade Caverns, Fair Grounds and Private property /17/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature I've seen different areas along Ralph Fair Road and the easter access roads used as dump sites for these big earth movers. The large trucks are also pulling off into the deep shoulders, tearing up the natural sod, resulting in erosion when we have a follow on rain. One of the newest residential sites off Ralph Fair (east side) has earth movers coming & going all the time. They are leaving large amounts of dirt (which turns to mud in the rain), which increases the danger for north-south bound traffic. In addition, this debris is ground into the asphalt by the north south traffic and prematurely destroys the road. Is the builder/developer being charged for any of this? /17/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature A western bypass of Boerne would minimize current business and residential areas /18/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature /18/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Absolutely! Any new roads must be sited and built with this in mind. Do not promote sprawl with new roads. That sounds nice, but the decisions made earlier to grant all this building narrow the ability to keep a lot of nature close by. Please do not make homeowners now have highways through their backyards in order to preserve Cibolo Nature Cibolo center /19/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Not once in all of the years of discussions about these roads, has anyone looked at, much less, studied the environmental impacts on the proposals for the NE 'connector'. That connector goes over rural land with century oaks and wet weather creeks, that is a habitat to wild turkey, foxes, deer, numerous bird species and mammals. All of this area drains into the Cibolo, which feeds into the aquifer. There are some people within the city and county planning that have and continue to say that these things have been looked at and that those of us impacted by these corridors have been contacted. That is absolutely false. A general postcard from TxDot announcing an open house does not constitute informing homeowners that a road is being proposed to go through their home or property /19/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature There will be some 'cost' that are unavoidable.

37 281 11/20/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Too many homes mean more water problems for the city /20/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature When city officials allow developments along one of the principal natural resources in Boerne, Cibolo Creek, they are affecting this issue negatively. 17 Herff Road is a prime example /20/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Cibolo nature trail is a benefit. Same with the park. Any way to expand is greatly appreciated /20/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Definitely - avoid new construction over area like Cascade Caverns /22/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature see previous comment. preserve quality of life, minimize urbanization /22/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature see previous comment /22/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature /23/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature No more building ago Cibolo or Menger Creeks /26/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature important /27/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature /27/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature /27/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Most definitely! /27/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Absolutely!! Why do people want to move here?? They want open areas and the beauty of the Hill country. There are communities that put our natural resources first. Follow their ideas. There are sensitive creeks & watersheds & caverns & unidentified subterranean structures in the area that have yet to be studied & the impact new roadways would have on them. The SE Connector is poorly planned as it passes over Cascade Caverns and other known karst areas. The rural nature of this area will be destroyed by this Loop route /27/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Once again you cannot without zoning or other impact restricting codes being implemented /28/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature do not encroach on private property and ranches. they gave a lot to the city and high school /28/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Some of the proposed routes would do exactly the opposite by destroying quiet country neighborhoods /28/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Building too many large subdivisions is taking a big toll on the natural beauty that used to be Boerne /28/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Double yes!! /28/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Roads in undeveloped areas just lead to sprawl and degredation of open space and scenic views /28/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature The proposed Gateway route goes way too close to Cascade Caverns /29/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Protect Cibolo nature park and develop more greenways for walking and biking /30/2017 Goals- Preserve Nature Yet development is being allowed by Cibolo Nature Center.

The result is a transportation crisis, that you now want the existing landowners to subsidize /14/2017 Goals- Keep Local Culture People want to visit and live in Boerne for the small town atmosphere. This needs to be protected. Growth is inevitable but major routes need to be pushed as far away from town as possible. The small local ranches and open space around the city center also contribute to the culture and feel of Boerne /15/2017 Goals- Keep Local Culture /15/2017 Goals- Keep Local Culture /15/2017 Goals- Keep Local Culture /15/2017 Goals- Keep Local Culture /15/2017 Goals- Keep Local Culture Keep Boerne Boerne unlike Austin being weird! /15/2017 Goals- Keep Local Culture Again, by allowing businesses that do not complement Boerne either in their substance or at least in their architecture. Too many "chains" make this small town feel like every other strip center town in America. People aren't moving here for that experience. we keep wanting small town culture but yet we advertise every event everywhere for tourism. We can't have it both ways. Boerne/Bergheim is/was a rural community...we moved here in 2009 and are disappointed with planning on the part of community leaders...there are only benefits to large corporations with deep pockets...when much more could be done to make this a nice place to visit. If we destroy the beauty of the Boerne corridor it will affect the charm and beauty of our precious downtown! Let be wise in allowing large national stores to develop that will kill our downtown shops! Many charming towns in our country have restrictions on this! They protect their local business and historic charm!!!

The routes go through homesboth old and new, a new neighborhood, historic properties and will destroy large caliber oak trees. My property alone has over a hundred oaks on it, many which are large caliber. There are $500,000+ new homes and historic, founding family homes that these roads are drawn over. Not one word has been said about these impacts by the city or by TxDot. Is this a result of the city failing to communicate through it's representatives? This is the major reason why people come to our city so why destroy it. The city/county hasn't allowed every fast food joint, but I am certain that will come!! That hourse is already out of the barn!! And then there is Buckee's...how ridiculous!! Why is this on the list?? Local culture already is trashed /22/2017 Goals- Keep Local Culture people moved to or live in Boerne for Boerne. don't vjange the town to facilitate traffic thru town /23/2017 Goals- Keep Local Culture Need more regulations for low density housing or require all households to have a resident that works in Kendall County.

Do not allow growth to ruin what Boerne is, a historic town with lots of charm. I am all for growth, but we must minimize the impact it will have on our town.

Should this be done, yes! Had this been done, not in my opinion explaining why I copse not to drive into Boerne any more to spend my dollars. Any planning that I feel may have been done traces back to deep pockets (Bucees and Vulcan and the like), and don't appear to be things that the community in general want.

The taxpayers, homeowners and existing landowners should not have to subsidize developers that chose to develop with less expensive land without access to I10, but now want access to I10 through our properties. There are plenty of willing land owners ready to sell that would provide a path, or the developers that want the path can buy the path through normal market means rather than using eminent domain to enhance development at the expense of those that have invested their livelyhood to this community. I own the land that you want to make a NE middle parkway. You will be bulldozing the home that we created for our family and that my father (now 82) built for us. We saved for years and bought what we could afford and what we wanted. You want to take away something that cannot be replaced to benefit an 'easier and faster path' back to SA for those that chose not to buy a home with quick access to SA, and again, thereby subsidizing developers that have not contributed to this community for years, and generations. Fast routes around town are necessary. However they need to be placed well out of town and through unimproved areas to maintain the small town feel of Boerne. There must be a sizable buffer zone maintained around Boerne to keep the small town feel. Keeping these routes in unimproved areas will also allow for easier right-of-ways today and for expansion in the future /15/2017 Fastest Route vs Shortest Route Could you possibly provide a grainier more useless map?

Choose the one that will have to least impact on the natural beauty, caves water etc of our community...lenngth does not matter if all natural beauty is gone forever! You should probably map your maps visible. These small blurred maps tell us nothing. I need to see road names to know where these proposed routes actually go. Just a thought.

Part of the charm of Boerne is the winding country roads. Back when roads were first paved and created, they were laid out between the existing tracks of Land. The roads may have to twist and turn between this ranch and that one but they traversed the edges. The farm to markets were not the shortest but were twisting and delightful with new Vistas around each corner. The shortest and or fastest routs offer neither the charm or delight of a meandering hill country road. It's impossible to even read these maps! No legible street names or identifying points allow anyone to make an informed vote! /28/2017 Fastest Route vs Shortest Route Cant even tell where these are.

Now, versus later /10/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Makes no sense /14/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term These projects always cost more than they are supposed to and take much longer. Do it right the first time! People can handle a little extra traffic until then /15/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term How about you just do 1 F-ing road at a time. Finish it and then see where the congestion is instead of the horrible way you approach road construction currently. I am from the NE where they get 4 months to build a road/ year and somehow they get it done. How can you be building 10 for 10+years /15/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Our view should be for the long term but, It is very hard to design long term solutions for a very fast growing area. I think the best objective is to build low cost short term improvements that are designed to facilitate future improvements. I lived in the fastest growing Virginia county, which had to tear up long term improvements within 10 years because of unanticipated additional growth. Let's build smartly! /15/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term keep the roads as rural as possible. no super highways /15/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Cheapest short term always ends up to be more expensive in the long term /15/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Again long term with #1 goal of protecting our natural beaury /16/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term /17/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term /17/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term To make an educated disission, one would need more information. I may be infavor in one location, yet oppose it in another. this area is growing way too fast for us to be short sided - we need to be prepared for what is coming and invest appropriately Again, least impact on the citizens should be the priority. However, a strategic, not tactical, solution will ultimately be the least expensive in time /18/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term For too long short term solutions turn into temporary solutions because of poor estimations /18/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Road projects are expensive and disruptive. Let's get it right the first time /18/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Would prefer higher cost & aesthetically pleasing long term solution i.e. divided boulevards (trees, etc.) /19/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term /20/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Long term is necessary See first tradeoff comment. These are useless comparisons. These are not the right questions for a survey. Why don' t you try over? /26/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term What are you asking us here? Are you saying that we can get a lower cost project done sooner that would relieve traffic congestion sooner or we can wait for the full solution and suffer until then? A-27

47 470 11/26/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term /27/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term it is important to plan for the future and not just solve the immediate problem. feel like many of the issues we face today was b/c of this tradeoff. prime example is I10 & 1604 with only 2 lanes going each way. Do this project once and get it right even if it takes longer and is delayed. Consider the example of I-10 - TXDoT has wasted tax funds with projects done incorrectly and requiring redo- e.g Hwy 46 exit, Boerne access road, Cascade Caverns overpass /27/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Road #3351 is already built and a no brainer, Expand it to a Highway /27/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term /27/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Short term solutions rarely solve anything /28/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term /28/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Depends on city plan and its alignment to grow proportionality with RESIDENTS moving in. If this is for BUSINESSES that Boerne is allowing to move in i.e Buckey's then maybe they should pay alot more in taxes vs abatement for bringing all the additional traffic in. Again, depends upon what route you are envisioning. Smaller impact with lower cost if you insist on going through the middle of quiet neighborhoods. Higher cost but long term solution if you just widen Ralph Fair to handle the excess traffic Lower cost and smaller roads if it must cut through neighborhoods. Higher cost if it is a more permanent solution like expanding Ralph Fair to four lanes /28/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Bigger roads do not equate to problem solution. Solve the problem not the symptom /2/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches /2/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches.no Toll Roads!! /4/2017 Short-Term vs Long-Term "If you build it they will come" /8/ /9/ /9/2017 Please take into account, but should not be a stop to the project. How can you save the historical buildings and change the environment or visa versa. If the loops are far enough out it won t impact historic preservation or natural preservatiom /9/ /9/2017 Both are important to me but there rate of natural area destruction is dramatic. Much of the beauty of Kendall County and Boerne lies in its rural and natural surroundings. Highways, developments, etc are changing the look and feel of the area. Natural habitat is declining at an alarming rate. I very much value the historical elements of Boerne and Kendall county as well and hope that as much as can be done to preserve our cultural heritage and history. Both are irreplacable Neither A-28

48 486 11/10/ /10/2017 Find a way to balance both. Perhaps a more appropriate choice is historic /environmental vs. subdivisions and Big box stores. That seems to be the choice we are making. Sacrificing historic or environment demeans the character of Boerne /12/ /13/ /14/ /15/ /15/ /15/ /15/ /15/ /15/ /15/ /15/ /15/ /16/2017 You could just widen the current highways instead of cutting roads through the hill country. You can start by widening the bridge at I-10 and 46. That would alleviate a ton of congestion in that area. Cibolo and Herff farm went to the state to register the property so that they can protect it from development. All the landowners have a stake, but we all can't trot down and register our property as such. This is an unfair comparison! There doesn t have to be a trade-off. Both are important, especially for a place like Boerne which is enjoyed for both aspects. This is a totally bogus question. They BOTH should be prioritized and it is impossible to understand how one could trade these Both are highly valuable to me Nature is what makes us unique. It must be protected This is the hardest question. The broader plan should include citizen input for each specific impacted area. That said every effort should be made to design a system and improvements that have the least impact on the flavor of Boerne. For instance, we may not have to widen HWY 46 along the river walkway if we divert non-essential traffic through other routes. Or perhaps downtown can be preserved as a low traffic location by improving school road, etc. Protect open spaces and family ranches I m not sure why we would have to trade one of these for the other, both should be a priority in our community! History and nature are why people are moving to Boerne, let s not ruin it! Both should be preserved. This is a bad question. Both This is not an either/or proposition. We can preserve both with an appropriate plan. Both are important. We should not have to choose one and lose the other. A-29

Again, a case by case basis. minimize impact on both Both of these are a high priority - this is not a meaningful choice. I wouldn't compromise either of these. I am much more concerned with our natural environment concerns as I believe this has much larger impacts on our health as a whole, however we do need to consider some historical preservation as part of our city culture This is a bullshit question to me. Are you suggesting that we HAVE to choose one over the other? Can't BOTH be preserved. Seriously. Natural preservation is of higher priority, although historic resources can be relocated if absolutely necessary. This really depends on which specific resources are being considered. Cannot have a black and white question like this. It is important to save BOTH! Minimize to natural resource Please eliminate the option that utilizes the road Spanish Pass. My land and drive way are inclusive in that option and our land falls under wild life protection acts. Structures can be moved or rebuilt. Natural areas can never be reclaimed after development. Both are critically important to quality of life in our community. HORRIBLE TRADEOFF! BOTH of these are important! A-30

50 518 11/19/2017 Both are extremely important aspects that should be considered when deciding on traffic congestion remediation /19/ /19/ /20/ /20/ /20/ /21/ /21/ /22/ /26/ /26/ /26/ /27/ /27/ /27/ /28/2017 What kind of choice is this?? Why would you suggest that Kendall County residents would accept having to choose between these two areas that are critical to our quality of life and economy? Poor question. I prefer the trade off of Historic AND Natural. It is NOT one or the other. IT IS BOTH and that is not a question. THe question is the cost of this preservation vs time and money. Are people willing to drive a little farther, or slower, a little more or whatever to keep the historic and natural resources that we have. THE TRADEOFF IS preservation vs. convenience. IF you were to ask that tradeoff I would choose preservation. This doesn't make sense when you have a very historical city and also a beautiful natural environment. Neither is a trade off. It's both. Period. Natural preservation Preserve Natural, do not take farmland or residential properties. Both are equally important. why is this an either-or question? the answer is preserve both. can be done: figure it out This should not be a choice. Both are important. Why should we have to choose?! This should not be a trade off! Both historic and natural elements should be able to be preserved. Why do we have to choose? both are extremely important and should be minimized as both are irreplaceable. however, the natural environment is more important. The natural environment will be lost forever with the current Kendall Gateway through Cascade Caverns This appears to me to be a false trade-off. I don't know why historic and natural are indicated as oppositional. poor question - they are one and the same and shouldn't be pitted against each other this is a false choice, Gateway sucks, it is developer friendly. this is a false trade-off A-31

51 534 11/28/ /28/ /28/ /28/ /28/ /30/ /30/2017 What kind of tradeoff is that? The more we can preserve the few natural areas we have left, the better. As it is there is so much building going on that we are having more and more flooding issues when it rains due to all the impermeable ground cover We need all the natural areas we can preserve. Already too much impermeable ground covers causing flooding during heavy rains This does not seem like a fair question. Does this mean preserve the historic district at the expense of open space and nature? This should not be an either/or. I value each of these resources equally and they should be equally preserved. Both should be preserved! BOTH are high Priority and should not be traded for each other /2/2017 Development should always consider and preserve access to ground water. Growth should not impact the aquifer, threaten private water wells, or impose additional water use restrictions /2/ /2/ /4/ /1/ /1/20017 Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches.

No Toll Roads!! we should preserve both both are bad choices both /8/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access Depends on location /9/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access Many of us drive long distances daily to San Antonio and other areas. Quick efficient routes are very important. No traffic lights! /9/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access Either option will be a negative for adjacent properties as far as aesthetics and quality of life /9/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access It depends on the road and where it is taking you. Are we trying to get to a place far away? Or do we need to stop at various places. There is no map of where the new proposed roads are A-32

52 551 11/13/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access /14/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access /15/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access /15/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access whenever possible expand existing roadways rather than plowing through landowners/homeowner properties to make room for developers to sell one more house and pocket the profits. We already have I-10 adjacent to town...we don t need another high speed access. What is needed are more routes around town for through traffic and those wishing to access I-10. These must be located far enough out of town as to not impact the cultural or natural aspects of Boerne. Given the growth on 46 and considering exiting farms and business I think you will need to come up with a hybrid solution to ensure safety for all. Neither of these images seem to address. The high access routine definitely presents safety issues and well as your high speed alternative. Speeds on 46 are already too high for conditions. It seams to me that access and intersection congestion are the two issues that impact the most on congestion. Speed is fine if it does not add to increased choke points and longer waits at intersections. Can we improve the natural flow/routes as well as ensure new developments don't create choke points-- it is a travesty to allow a major development to rely on one exit and entrance. Most developments in Virginia don't allow cul de sacs anymore or developments with only one exit/entrance /15/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access Less speed /16/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access Should be reviewed case by case /17/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access /17/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access I think highway in close proximity to the city should have easy access and since close by should have controlled speed. The corridor between Boerne and SA should be higher speed less access (also same towards Comfort) It is not acceptable to conclude a generalized comment that differentiates between these options without selling out for a specific option. If I choose one for a certain option, it may be the wrong one for another. Poorly presented item /17/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access Depends on where it is /17/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access As long as the non controlled access is north of Boerne this would make sense. Trying to move the non controlled into existing residential communities would be detrimental and more costly /18/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access This option would seem to facilitate movement of pass-through traffic more effectively. A-33

53 562 11/19/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access Your picture makes it appear that you can't have smaller ROW, less lanes and have limited access. Less impact, limited access is what is needed because these are all being proposed in mostly developed, historical or environmentally important areas /19/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access Another silly question. Please redo this survey. I prefer faster highways is lesser populated areas and slower speed higher access in higher populated areas obviously where it makes sense /21/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access what is the definition of controlled and Non-Controlled? /26/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access /26/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access /26/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access This is a horrible question to ask the public because we have no idea what the implications might be of answering. We don t know what the actual roadway/location options are and thus cannot answer this with any confidence. It is difficult to answer this question as I do not understand what the plan would be for each option. It is hard to pick a tradeoff when I have no idea what the proposed routes would be. access points on highways slow speeds, less safe due to merging, and create bottlenecks. ex. closing just 2 on ramps on i10 between boerne and 1604 would have drastic effects on traffic movement /28/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access As long as the highway is not through the middle of neighborhoods /28/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access Same as before. If it's Ralph Fair going to four lanes then go for it /28/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access /30/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access /2/2017 Controlled vs Non-Controlled Access Think Autobahn. Less access and higher speed for travelling long distances. Not appropriate for local travel. Cannot have both. An important consideration for this study is the impact of the proposed Bucee's near the south margin of Boerne. It was hard for me to determine if that was actually considered in the proposed alternatives for Kendall Gateway. The new Bucee's will bring additional heavy vehicular traffic (e.g., buses, 18-wheeler trucks) into the Exit 542/543 area. Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches.

Does TxDot? If residents and a thorough study of these impacts allow for it, then this further out route is the only one to make sense for through traffic, not local /22/2017 Northwest Outer Concept This option appears to have the least impact to residential and commercial property and be least costly /23/2017 Northwest Outer Concept /26/2017 Northwest Outer Concept See other west side comment! /27/2017 Northwest Outer Concept /27/2017 Northwest Outer Concept This moves traffic further away from down town /28/2017 Northwest Outer Concept Far out seems like it would be the best /30/2017 Northwest Outer Concept Should never happen! Current roads should be expanded. No new roads that divide undeveloped land. This will lead to more subdivision & make the over-population of the county a worse problem. No growth in drainage area for the lake The notion only 8 residential/commercial property are impacted fails to acknowledge the adverse traffic and bucolic setting of Spring Creek Estates. Such impacts reduces property value, wildlife population & enjoyment, and property rights of quite enjoyment of properties /30/2017 Northwest Outer Concept Should never happen!

Either this or northeast mddle makes sense This is not necessary if west bound traffic traffic can detour to IH10 by going from 46 south to IH10 east of Boerne on the bypass /18/2017 Northeast Outer Concept There is no traffic here. Adding a highway would just bring more traffic. Keep Sisterdale as it is! /19/2017 Northeast Outer Concept The western part of this road might be far enough out, but having it dip down to Spring Creek Rd means the destruction of several homes, new and old, old family properties and enviornmental impacts. The amount of traffic going north does not warrant these roads. A SE connector, closer in, should be built to handle SH46 through traffic that needs to go both west and south. A-36

56 615 11/19/2017 Northeast Outer Concept The western part of this road might be far enough out, but having it dip down to Spring Creek Rd means the destruction of several homes, new and old, old family properties and environmental impacts. It is still too close in, and should at the very least, circle further north around Friendly Hills subdivision, to line up with the western line of this route and avoid the existing homes in Spring Creek Estates and along Spring Creek Rd. However, the amount of traffic going north does not warrant these roads. A SE connector, closer in, should be built to handle SH46 through traffic that needs to go both west and south /20/2017 Northeast Outer Concept This MUST be done SOON! Traffic needs to get diverted OFF of Boerne Main St. ASAP /20/2017 Northeast Outer Concept Leave 46 East "as is" /21/2017 Northeast Outer Concept There is not alot of traffic to this area. No one goes to the North of Boerne all traffic issues are South /24/2017 Northeast Outer Concept Some of this land is habitat of Texas songbird. Also I am coming concerned about residential impact /26/2017 Northeast Outer Concept /26/2017 Northeast Outer Concept /26/2017 Northeast Outer Concept This would have minimal effect on traffic in my opinion as it is primarily located in rural areas. Would be a waste of money and would not reduce traffic very much at all. 2nd best NE concept as majority of traffic going thru downtown are coming from east and heading North. with enhancements to 46, would create a bypass around SAT and would not disrupt boerne. best NE concept as majority of traffic going thru downtown are coming from east and heading North. with enhancements to 46, would create a bypass around SAT and would not disrupt boerne /26/2017 Northeast Outer Concept Additional negative impact to already heavily congested areas of Hwy 474, Springcreek & Hwy /26/2017 Northeast Outer Concept /27/2017 Northeast Outer Concept A Northeast Corridor is not needed. TexDot has never shown the public the data on west bound traffic that justifies a northern bypass. Please show us the numbers!! /27/2017 Northeast Outer Concept This route allows Boerne to expand North more easily /28/2017 Northeast Outer Concept The further away from the city the better /28/2017 Northeast Outer Concept The farther out from the city the better /8/2017 Northeast Middle Concept Too much bicycle traffic, crooked road /8/2017 Northeast Middle Concept /10/2017 Northeast Middle Concept Allows for bypassing of the city /10/2017 Northeast Middle Concept Why in the world would u do this? Too much bicycle traffic, crooked road. Large trucks are too wide for the road. I have been run off of the road by them. Lowering the speed limit has not reduced this. A-37

57 633 11/15/2017 Northeast Middle Concept /15/2017 Northeast Middle Concept Traffic relief not needed for this route. I think this option would serve better if it would tie into Hwy 46 around where the other option ties in that comes further east of Boerne /16/2017 Northeast Middle Concept Not needed if Westbound traffic on 46E can take the southern by pass /16/2017 Northeast Middle Concept This should be considered because it is a continuation to the dark green running along Ammann Rd /17/2017 Northeast Middle Concept /18/2017 Northeast Middle Concept There is no traffic here. Yes makes more sense. Helps north east communities to get to boerne or farther northwest. Make 46 bigger more lanes from Ralph Fair and east. 46 can then connect up with this new northeast middle propsal /19/2017 Northeast Middle Concept I live on this road and do not want it to become a major thoroughfare /19/2017 Northeast Middle Concept Again, this will destroy existing homes, a newer neighborhood and historic farms, as well as environmental impacts. These NE proposals will bi-sect Boerne, in the future they will not serve for through traffic, as local congestion will reduce capacity. Boerne High School is only 1 1/2 miles from this proposed 'truck' bypass and many student drive north on FM474 to go home, which would mean going through a major bypass at least twice a day. A bypass of this nature should not be planned through existing homes, neighborhoods or this close into town and school /20/2017 Northeast Middle Concept To me the biggest problem is the traffic using 46 to get to and from I 10. The biggest priority in my opinion should be focused on diverting that traffic first. It will help downtown congestion as well as the I interchange. Unfortunately the HEB has caused a lot of traffic too as people come from all directions to get to it. People from Medina, Bandera etc. see it as a way to avoid SA /21/2017 Northeast Middle Concept There is not alot of traffic to the North side of Boerne /26/2017 Northeast Middle Concept 2nd best alternative after NE inner concept /26/2017 Northeast Middle Concept Additional negative impact to already heavily congested areas of Hwy 474, Springcreek & Hwy /26/2017 Northeast Middle Concept Adds additional negative impact to already heavily congested areas of Hwy 474, Springcreek & Hwy /26/2017 Northeast Middle Concept /27/2017 Northeast Middle Concept None of these Northeastern routes are needed and will affect historic Herff ranch. The southern route can be used to get to I 10 much quicker. strongly disagree with this one. Population is minimal out that way and being dumped on IH 10 on the northside of Boerne just leads to more congestion on East bound IH 10 heading toward San Antonio /27/2017 Northeast Middle Concept A Northeast corridor is not needed. A-38

58 649 11/27/2017 Northeast Middle Concept too close in to Boerne to route traffic around town /28/2017 Northeast Middle Concept This crosses and bisects several of the oldest historic ranches of the county /8/2017 Northeast Inner Concept This is a good arterial inner loop that would compliment the outer loop /8/2017 Northeast Inner Concept Extend road to I-10 versus stopping at /8/2017 Northeast Inner Concept Extend road to I-10 versus stopping at 87. Also, highway 46 should be 3 lanes from Boerne to Bulverde (281 intersection) /9/2017 Northeast Inner Concept This route of the 3 would do the most to relieve traffic congestion in Boerne /9/2017 Northeast Inner Concept Quick in/out access to schools is a priority /9/2017 Northeast Inner Concept These neighborhoods are being developed.

Maximise use of existing roads to minimize impact on people and the environment /16/2017 Northeast Inner Concept Not needed if West bound traffic can get to I 10 from FM 46 E south to I 10 on the Southern bypass /17/2017 Northeast Inner Concept /17/2017 Northeast Inner Concept Maybe. Either this or mddle or outer Why multiple routes -- if the purpose is to move cars from the east to I-10, then the existing southern route accomplishes that purpose /19/2017 Northeast Inner Concept If Esperanza is creating a traffic issue, it is incumbent upon the city to connect it with it's existing roadways, or better yet- they should have made that a requirement in the planning process. Deer Creek Rd and Bentwood should have been planned as connectors for city traffic flow. If these NE connectors are planned, they would be simply to alleviate the headache of Esperanza and other developments of the city, and not as bypasses for SH46. County residents should not have their homes and property taken by eminent domain by the city to accommodate this when there are other options on existing roads for that traffic. Since that's the case, then any true bypasses should be limited access, further out from existing neighborhoods and homes. A-39

Being able to bypass the narrow bridge where traffic backs up at I-10 and Hwy 46 would be nice. However you could just widen the roads we have (especially that bridge!), and that would probably alleviate a whole lot of the problem /15/2017 Southwest Outer Concept Traffic relief not needed for this route /17/2017 Southwest Outer Concept Yes any option west of 10 would be better /19/2017 Southwest Outer Concept /23/2017 Southwest Outer Concept I cannot comment, because the city and TxDot have not listed the impacts that such a road will have and therefore, allowed us to properly weigh the impacts and consequences of any 'choice' we might make.

This routes is too far out of town. Concentration of population is too far away from this option. Also huge negative impacts for ammann road and corresponding neighborhood residents. There are at least two aquifer recharge zones within feet of, if not under, this route just west of cibolo ridge trail. This should alleviate some of hwy 46 problem but given the development already approved on top of current problems you should focus on making east side and southeast 90%+ of your investment for the next 50 years A-42

62 720 11/10/2017 Southeast Outer Concept /10/2017 Southeast Outer Concept /12/2017 Southeast Outer Concept /13/2017 Southeast Outer Concept There is an Aquifer charger in this area that would impact everyone with wells. An Environmental study would be required to protect the investment of residents. Concerned about entry and exits for Cibolo Ridge Estates. How would a left or even right turn be a safe option under this concept? Ammann road was not designed to carry this much traffic. There is too much wildlife along this route...too many deer will be getting into the road. There are several caves on the Cibolo including at least two others between Cascade Caverns and Van Raub (3 miles south). There are probably many others that are not known. The environmental impacts of cutting a highway through this area would be catastrophic. Why isn't the option to go straight down 3351 where there is already right of way, rather than patching through multiple private properties for no real reason other than to tie into easy access to IH10 for Esperanza development /14/2017 Southeast Outer Concept /14/2017 Southeast Outer Concept /14/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Ammann is a poor route to improve. It parallels highway 46 which is already a major route and would impact many of the small ranches and rural neighborhoods that give Boerne its small town character. too many stream crossings!! too much disruption to the untouched natural landscape and open ranchland. too many stream crossings!! too much disruption to the untouched natural landscape and open ranchland. A major road in the far outer loop concept area will materially negatively impact property values and quality of life. These are very expensive large parcels you will impact with this outer loop concept road /15/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Maximise use of existing roads to minimize impact on people and the environment /16/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Too many stream crossing impacts /16/2017 Southeast Outer Concept /17/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Adds no value /17/2017 Southeast Outer Concept You need to take into account the opinions of the people that live along these proposed routes. No one wants these new roads except the developers. Adds no value. Will just bring more traffic from north east communities thru FOR. Not good. Raises traffic and crime /18/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Not necessary because of Easy access to I-10 from 46 via Ralph Fair /19/2017 Southeast Outer Concept The plus on this route is using existing ROW as much as possible. The negative is that it isn't coming out further north on IH10, in order to provide more options for north or westbound traffic from SH46. A-43

63 What would you do this? 3351 runs all the way to 10. It has recently been redone (not very well since /19/2017 Southeast Outer Concept still funnel to limited turn lanes) so USE it. We do not need multiple parallel corridors. Fix the one that exists /20/2017 Southeast Outer Concept To avoid so much disruption (new ROW, flood areas, res-com impacts)-use ALL of 3351 instead of cutting across & around Fair Oaks Ranch to the west needs increased capacity NOW. In this scenario, it could kill 2 birds: the SE "outer loop" AND increased 3351 capacity /20/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Please avoid another cave and Endangered species /23/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Current roads should be expanded. No new roads that divide undeveloped land. This will lead to more subdivision & make the over-population of the county a worse problem /26/2017 Southeast Outer Concept This concept does not make sense to me at all. If someone was at 46 and 3351 wanting to get to I-10E south of Boerne, then it would be best to take existing 3351 route. If they wanted to travel to Boerne (from the same starting place) then then it would be best to take existing 46 route. Both 46 and 3351 (and intersections with these roads) could be improved. It makes no sense to encourage traffic to leave one of these highways to travel on a much smaller (for now) roadway or a new roadway that must be constructed through private property (many existing residents not willing to give up their homes to make way for a new highway) /26/2017 Southeast Outer Concept /26/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Keeps traffic away from already congested areas. this concept doesn't make sense. much of the traffic that would use route already has option of using ralph fair rd (3351) and would be expensive /26/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Keeps traffic away from already heavily congested areas /26/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Reroutes traffic away from already heavily congested areas /27/2017 Southeast Outer Concept /27/2017 Southeast Outer Concept this option makes no sense. Waste of tax dollars at this point and won't really relieve any congestion due to developments on or near SH 46. A-44

64 745 11/27/2017 Southeast Outer Concept The SE middle and SE outer options, should be eliminated. Point being, developers should pay for their development's access to IH10 if they so choose it. Eminent domain should NOT be used to subsidize developers and commercial enterprise at the expense of private citizens and taxpayers. Developers should provide the land or purchase the access that they want from willing participants of the transaction; including Esperanza and Herff developments and any future Cement Plant proposals. Expansion of existing highways, SH46 to Herff Parkway to Main Street (Hwy 87) to a nonstop entrance to IH10 should be the path used for 'SE middle and inner' access to IH10 should be the path used for 'SE outer' access. Enhancements of 3351, SH46 and those existing connectors should be expanded for current and future transportation issues. ROW already predominately exists for these options, the cost would be substantially smaller than creating NEW roads via eminent domain across private resident homes with the cost of resulting lawsuits in the process /27/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Unfairly disruptive to long-term neighborhoods /27/2017 Southeast Outer Concept /27/2017 Southeast Outer Concept So this is the only option for the jam packed subdivisions to utilize without going to area that environmental issues would stop. So this is the only option for the jam packed subdivisions to utilize without going to area that environmental issues would stop. Truck access going south with north access at IH /27/2017 Southeast Outer Concept A seemingly better approach to divert Cordierra traffic off /27/2017 Southeast Outer Concept As Boerne grows out 46 east this would route traffic away from town better /27/2017 Southeast Outer Concept Aquifer recharge area /28/2017 Southeast Outer Concept A larger loop is better due to the degree of anticipated growth /28/2017 Southeast Outer Concept What does this do any differently than FM3351? Not clear how this is beneficial except to spur new growth that would occur along this road concept corridor which would result in same problem we are experiencing now /28/2017 Southeast Outer Concept It passes through gated community and that's not ok /29/2017 Southeast Outer Concept This route should follow FM 3351 farther south than indicated. Why not use as much of existing right of way as possible? This would have the lease adverse effect on homeowners trying to preserve their peaceful enjoyment of their property /30/2017 Southeast Outer Concept This path cuts through 100 year ranch land approved by ag commissioner and the pinta trail /8/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /8/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /9/2017 Southeast Middle Concept Do not do this I feel that using 3351 extending back to IH10 would be a better solution thus redirecting traffic long before getting to Boeing as a priority.

65 760 11/9/2017 Southeast Middle Concept Concept cutting through Kendall Pointe would destroy small community lifestyle /9/2017 Southeast Middle Concept This route when connected to other quadrants does very little to relieve traffic congestion in Boerne /10/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /10/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /10/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /10/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /12/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /13/2017 Southeast Middle Concept There are at least two aquifer recharge zones within feet of- or under- this proposed route just west of cibolo ridge trail With the rapidly developing areas in and immediately around Fair Oaks Ranch, off Dietz Elkhorn, Old Fredericksburg, Cascade Caverns, this route would provide direct access to Boerne, Champion High School. Otherwise large numbers of vehicles are limited to roundabout access via I-10/Herff, or very indirectly via Old Fredericksburg/Cascade Caverns/Old San Antonio. This proposed roadway would ease a lot of traffic flow through existing and rapidly overcrowding routes in Boerne. There is an Aquifer charger in this area that would impact everyone with wells. An Environmental study would be required to protect the investment of residents. Allows better access to south bound IH-10. Also the loop is further out from the City of Boerne allowing for future growth and bypassing of the city. There are several caves on the Cibolo including at least two others between Cascade Caverns and Van Raub (3 miles south). There are probably many others that are not known. The environmental impacts of cutting a highway through this area would be catastrophic. One mile down the road you want to plow through many peoples homes and properties as a 'supplement' to the developer land access. this is not necessary, and is effectively using eminent domain to supplement developers of Esperanza. My home that I saved for, built ourselves, would be plowed over for all the NEW homeowers that have moved to the 'country' but still want fast access to the city. I do not want to supplement that attitude, those developers, at the sacrifice of the home that we worked so hard to create. Our home would forerver be damaged by the state forcing access through private property for the benefit of development. That is not what eminent domain was for is a better option and should be used. The inner NE access, again, is through 'developer' properties. You don't need a third access through my home /14/2017 Southeast Middle Concept Needs to be pushed further east to tie into NE Outer route /14/2017 Southeast Middle Concept I would directly link the SE Middle concept to the NE Outer concept. I would also add a new connection directly to 46 by extending the short north/south section of Ammann Rd to the north to ease congestion at the current Ammann Rd intersections with 46 and FM /14/2017 Southeast Middle Concept This is a better alternative than the outer loop but not as desirable as the inner loop. I don't understand the SE Section of the otter loop. this project needs to be kept as far west as possible A-46

66 771 11/15/2017 Southeast Middle Concept Maximise use of existing roads to minimize impact on people and the environment /15/2017 Southeast Middle Concept This is the best option but I believe it should tie into Hwy 46 a little further east of Boerne /15/2017 Southeast Middle Concept This path seems to run right through an existing neighborhood (Kendall Pointe). NO /16/2017 Southeast Middle Concept Out of all the choices, this impacts the least overall /16/2017 Southeast Middle Concept Less damaging to sensitive natural areas, and allows for future expansion /16/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /17/2017 Southeast Middle Concept We do NOT need more roads. If you add more roads, all that will happen is more developments will come and clog those roads is over loaded now. It is also part of the agreement relative to Camp Stanley and requires light be kept at a minimum. Basically can't add outdoor lighting /18/2017 Southeast Middle Concept Not necessary because of easy access to I-10 to/from 46 via Ralph Fair /18/2017 Southeast Middle Concept This is where all the traffic is and people are traveling either west to town or south to SA /19/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /20/2017 Southeast Middle Concept Please avoid another cove and endanger species This road needs to bypass Cascade Caverns, an environmentally sensitive area. It should cut further north, to IH10, like the inner concept route, and facilitate west and northbound traffic to IH10 and West SH46. It should be limited access to preserve capacity /21/2017 Southeast Middle Concept Gives another way to get to I10 other than Ralph Fair Road /22/2017 Southeast Middle Concept This would appear to be the least expensive option while impacting fewer residential properties /23/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /23/2017 Southeast Middle Concept I strongly oppose this approach. It would cut through significant residential areas and has way too much impact. Current roads should be expanded. No new roads that divide undeveloped land. This will lead to more subdivision & make the over-population of the county a worse problem /26/2017 Southeast Middle Concept This would impact fewer homes and takes traffic from Hwy 46 and Ammann all the way to I /26/2017 Southeast Middle Concept 2nd to Southwest inner concept /26/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /26/2017 Southeast Middle Concept I am opposed to this concept as it includes all new roadways that must be constructed through private property (many existing residents -- including me -- not willing to give up their homes to make way for a new highway). This concept would destroy the rural nature of my family's home for the convenience of other, new residence and the profit of developers. The middle loop seems to me to be the best option for the most residents in Boerne and gets the traffic around and out of Boerne with the least impact on the beautiful hill country! /26/2017 Southeast Middle Concept for SE corridor, this is 2nd best after SE inner concept /26/2017 Southeast Middle Concept Additional negative impact to already heavily congested areas. A-47

67 792 11/27/2017 Southeast Middle Concept /27/2017 Southeast Middle Concept not best option for SE corridor This would directly and negatively impact at least 115 additional residential properties in the Kendall Pointe Subd. It would also create the need for a new overpass at IH /27/2017 Southeast Middle Concept The SE middle and SE outer options, should be eliminated. Point being, developers should pay for their development's access to IH10 if they so choose it.

A-48

68 808 11/10/2017 Southeast Inner Concept An Environmental Study should be required as many of these properties are also on wells /10/2017 Southeast Inner Concept This route is too close to Boerne. It does not account for future growth of the City and county /12/2017 Southeast Inner Concept You have mapped this right over Cascade Caverns sink, a large cave on the west side of the Cascade Caverns property. There are at least three other caves besides the one that is open to the public on the Cascade property. There are also several caves on the surrounding properties. There are several caves on the Cibolo including at least two others between Cascade Caverns and Van Raub (3 miles south). There are probably many others that are not known. The environmental impacts of cutting a highway through this area would be catastrophic /13/2017 Southeast Inner Concept /14/2017 Southeast Inner Concept This option is substantially through properties that want access to SA or from developers that can set aside the land if handled timely. Rather than taking homeowners custome built homes a mile down the road. We don't need both. Take from the high density developers that want this bypass. Impacts too many neighborhoods and Cibolo Creek Natural Area. Too close to town to keep it unobtrusive /14/2017 Southeast Inner Concept Too close to town and impacts too many homes. Also would impact Cibolo Natural Area at the I-10bridge /14/2017 Southeast Inner Concept The SE section of the inner loop provides east west access and takes the traffic burden off DT Boerne without infringing on outlying rural areas open space keeping the more rural zones with the open and quite feeling they currently enjoy and that many residents have come to love about the area /14/2017 Southeast Inner Concept The SE section of the inner loop provides east west access and takes the traffic burden off DT Boerne without infringing on very expensive outlying residential/ranches located in more rural areas benefiting from open space and keeping the more rural zones with the open and quite feeling they currently enjoy and that many residents have come to love about the area.

This is a straight line and an existing highway. I don't understand why your have to destroy Boerne and populated Kendall County when HWY 3351 could be used to bring traffic from HWY 46 to I right of way is already there /18/2017 Southeast Inner Concept Too much impact on everything for all southeast concepts /19/2017 Southeast Inner Concept I know there are issues with all of the routes. This may not be the best placement for this road, given similar considerations and impacts that all of the roads imply. However, the idea that one road, close in, could meet the demands for south and west or north bound traffic from SH46, is an idea that must be considered given the minimization of cost, loss of homes and property, environmental impacts and future desired growth patterns and land use planning for our county, particularly the area close in to Boerne and the pressure being put on valuable environmental resources and homes /19/2017 Southeast Inner Concept This is the best selection. It would give good access to Kendall Elementary without disturbing any neighborhoods. The others look too close to long standing neighborhoods. I don't understand, there is lots of acreage in this area, why must we make roads through the more populated areas? /20/2017 Southeast Inner Concept Already have herf /20/2017 Southeast Inner Concept SCRAP this entirely. This is already too populated & built up & would be too disruptive /20/2017 Southeast Inner Concept Please avoid another cave with endangered species /23/2017 Southeast Inner Concept I strongly oppose this approach. Way too much impact /23/2017 Southeast Inner Concept /26/2017 Southeast Inner Concept Current roads should be expanded. No new roads that divide undeveloped land.

A-50

70 836 11/26/2017 Southeast Inner Concept This concept does travel through much undeveloped land (or land owned by a willing developer, I assume) (especially in northern portion as it leaves 46E). However, the connection to 46 through Coppers Creek should be evaluated/considered. I am concerned about the impact to existing residents farther south along this route before it connects to cascade caverns road (I don't know what the impacts are and how this is would be viewed by impacted residents -- but their concerns must be determined and included in this study) /26/2017 Southeast Inner Concept in the SE corridor, believe this is best concept and less disruptive to the community/environment. also does not add additional intersection on I /26/2017 Southeast Inner Concept Additional negative impact to already heavily congested areas /27/2017 Southeast Inner Concept /27/2017 Southeast Inner Concept best option for SE corridor This proposal is the best eastern option; will more effectively move traffic off of SH 46 and make use of newly-constructed interchange at Cascade Caverns /27/2017 Southeast Inner Concept best option for SE corridor to minimize environmental impact and does not add access point to I /27/2017 Southeast Inner Concept This 'bypass' option, if built at all, should originate through the Herff development with the developers providing the land and access that they want; including Esperanza subsidizing the acquisition of properties for their development(s) use. Otherwise expansion of existing highways, SH46 to Herff parkway to Main street (Hwy 87) to nonstop entrance to IH10 should be the path used for West access to IH10 should be the path used for East access.

It would destroy Cascade Caverns /28/2017 Southeast Inner Concept /28/2017 Southeast Inner Concept /1/2017 Southeast Inner Concept This appears to be the least objectionable re school traffic. It would allow for a greater bypass of the city as well. Same comment as Southeast middle concept. Environmentally sensitive area for aquifer recharge and karst structure. This would divert cars away from town but would pick up on 46 which could handle cars..ammann is not equipped to handle that much traffic and would ruin the quality of life for all that live on this country road /1/2017 Southeast Inner Concept Is there not any way to decrease the amount of residential and commercial impacts? /9/2017 Other Comments I would not approve any of the concepts as they are short sighted. The roadway to consider already exists. Truck traffic on 46 should access 473 from 281 and get to 10 at Comfort to go West. I don t believe that most of the 46 traffic is heading west /9/2017 Other Comments Lightest green - we need to provide alternate access closest to the large developments /9/2017 Other Comments /9/2017 Other Comments It's time to slow the pace of development and stop the government overreach and appropriation of private property (stealing). Unable to access concept selection. From viewing the PDFs with the overlays, please reconsider the proximity of the roadway along the Boerne City Lake and water treatment plant. Keep our dark skies and quiet settings as much as possible /9/2017 Other Comments Wished you had a satelite image so we can see how many people are being displaced /10/2017 Other Comments What the heck does this solve but increase density of current problems... and incentives developers /15/2017 Other Comments Getting from San Antonio to the east side of Boerne and Bergheim is horrendously slow, and Ranches and Creekside and Esparanza are going to make this much worse. A route this way makes sense for Boerne by decreasing the clogging of River Rd and Herff Rd, but the karst topography and closeness to Cascade Caverns and Cibolo Creek make it risky. It is still the highest priority in my eyes /15/2017 Other Comments Northwest outer concept, Northeast outer concept, Southwest outer concept, Southeast outer concept /15/2017 Other Comments Hwy 46 West cannot handle the traffic it has now. Do not put more vehicles on it /15/2017 Other Comments it would be wonderful if we could give people who prefer alternate transportation a place to use it. if bike lanes would be added to all roadways, then maybe less cars would be going through boerne.

72 866 11/15/2017 Other Comments I would need more information to the one with the least environmental impact and that retains the beauty of our hill country...i.e. The herff road expansion with the median of beautiful oak trees retained! Got to be our goal please! /15/2017 Other Comments That is ridiculous to ruin a residential subdivision. You have idiots creating these plans /15/2017 Other Comments Southeast /15/2017 Other Comments /16/2017 Other Comments How can you disrupt several quiet neighborhoods for a highway. We moved out here to get away from busy roads and traffic and now you want to put it at our doorstep I don t approve of any of these. Boerne works just fine. If people want to get around town at 60 mph, they should move elsewhere /17/2017 Other Comments Need more input on who gets affected and the price to pay for those affected /17/2017 Other Comments I can only comment on the the three southeast concepts, since I am not able to speak for those who will be impacted in the other three quadrants. With regard to the proposed options for the southeast quadrant, TxDOT proposed similar routes in All were met with strong county citizen resistance. Some one-thousand signatures were presented on a petition to the county judge recommending TxDOT abandon these routes. Approximately, two years of contested discussion ensued and in 2007 the county was informed TxDOT did indeed abandon the routes. I suggest you go into archives and find your department's documents on this issue. Kendall County should also have archived copies of these documents. Because there were personnel changes in TxDOT and County positions you should not now ignore the history of the withdrawal of these routes /18/2017 Other Comments I have no idea what the concepts are, what the color coding means, or or the boundaries of the quadrants /18/2017 Other Comments No. Not here! Pristine land, vulnerable cave system /18/2017 Other Comments This option has been argued at the Boerne City Counsil level in the past 10 years. When this option was argued, the Boerne City counsil struck the option from current and present loop/roadway options. This option utilizes my driveway and would not only impact my land, but the ground water and wild life protection trust our land ensures. We currently protect a very rare Texas Songbird. Construction in this area has more environmental and restidental impacts than your mission states /18/2017 Other Comments This screen is not working!! There are no roadway concepts shown at all /19/2017 Other Comments We really need to consider the Cave when making these decisions please /20/2017 Other Comments The software only allows for us to select one concept. Please update and extend deadline /20/2017 Other Comments Please please connect Kreutzberg to 46! /21/2017 Other Comments choose the route that does not compromise existing homes or properties. A-53

73 881 11/21/2017 Other Comments /25/2017 Other Comments Against going through Kendall Pointe subdivision /26/2017 Other Comments The north options down spring creek road is disruptive to wildlife and ranches in the area. We do NOT want a major road coming through our quiet area of town because the building to the South was not controlled. This should have been planned much better. Greed has taken over - would you want a major road going through your country home??? The middle routes make a loop and seem like a logical choice with fewer residential and environmental impacts. Everything in Kendall County seems to cross a flood plain so I don t see this as an area for concern as it is dealt with on a regular basis as is /26/2017 Other Comments The Middle loop seems like the best option for moving traffic around and out of Boerne /27/2017 Other Comments Use Ralph Fair for full route /27/2017 Other Comments Use 3351 for a South Access /27/2017 Other Comments Spring Creek options are not viable because it unduly disrupts existing Spring Creek Estate residents and wildlife habitat & populations /30/2017 Other Comments The primary objective should be to effectively manage Route 46 traffic flow through Boerne. That will be a major challenge. Alternatives that increase time/distance around Boerne will likely be less used and therefore not alleviate traffic congestion on major surface streets in Boerne /2/2017 Other Comments Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches.

I use SH 46 for all things because we live in that direction, traffic is horrible, need to do something quickly After reviewing our choices for proposed routes you clearly see city of Boerne created this problem that the now want county property owners to solve for them. Why are the proposed concepts on the south side all designed to impact those with acreage, wells and aquifers on their properties. Find a solution closer to the high density developments contributing to the problem. Do not destroy our properties /10/2017 Additional Comments Ammann Road intersection with I 46 is very dangerous now /10/2017 Additional Comments /10/2017 Additional Comments Southerly route should be further away from City /10/2017 Additional Comments I travel 46 when going to New Braunfels or Austin /10/2017 Additional Comments /10/2017 Additional Comments The outer loops look like nothing more than a developers will use to overdevelop the hill country. No one traveling around Boerne is going that far out of their way to get to the other side of town. They will just keep using 46. Look at where growth is and will be and likehood I d development and environmental impact... before moving to priorities... much of the north and northwest of Boerme is protected in family lands and environmental Easement and much more difficult and Would rather see new roads go across unimproved land not so close to homes. We bought here for wildlife & quiet; if this goes thru, I'll have a hwy 300' from my back patio, ruining our peace & quiet, reducing our prop value, no way to sell /10/2017 Additional Comments Some of this plan is awful for our creeks and envirment... particularly the option of a bypass that goes below the lake and 1/2 mile right next to Comanche springs creek... what were you thinking?

You can start with the bridge at I-10 and Hwy 46. Thanks! Diverting traffic west of 10 will not eliminate the current & future congestion east of 10 any developments of roadways West of 10 should not be considered as it will add no value and impact the lake, creeks and watersheds. I believe the northern routes provide the best balance of access and minimal impact to existing property owners /13/2017 Additional Comments Put in bypass roads where where subdivisions are being put in and land has already been acquired /13/2017 Additional Comments 87 south at IH-10 needs improvement immediately.

This seems to be a failure of many new roads (where Herff meets Main Street for example) I live off of Ammann road and have a difficult time getting on to 46 during high traffic times. I hope there will be a light getting on to 46 soon /15/2017 Additional Comments Why can't you just improve existing roads. We already have roads in place.

You need to make that prior question multi-select. I believe that access from the south and east is the worst congestion, I believe a route from south to east around boerne is the most important at this time. Also if entrance to Boerne from IH10 were all reworked and updated for better traffic flow. Flooding isolates Boerne from the east. We need a better way to connect to I10 and downtown, not loops into areas where no one lives My experience with improved roads in the east tends to encourage more residence to move to the out lying communities for more and less expensive housing. That may be changing with the millennial, but let's develop a plan that can be additive. Protect private property rights. Maximise use of existing roads to minimize impact on people and the environment. I live off of Hwy 46. I commute to and from work and also for shopping. Everywhere I go I travel Hwy 46. I am very concerned with the greatly increased Heavy Truck traffic on SH 46 and especially with the proposed Vulcan Concrete Batching Plant. keep traffic outside DT but as close in as possible. don't like bringing new traffic patterns to/thru larger ranches and expensive rural residential areas where residents are trying to escape congestion and traffic noise. DT traffic circle good /15/2017 Additional Comments Love the scenic drive and natural areas.

Once gone we will no longer be unique! Building a road right through an established neighborhood is a bad option. I realize I could get somewhere much faster with more roads, but I'd rather take the long way to keep my neighborhood intact. Families have invested and made their homes here. A-57

77 962 11/15/2017 Additional Comments Very confusing website /15/2017 Additional Comments With new schools being built on 3351, it makes sense to widen those lanes for traffic, and to not route traffic through Boerne neighborhoods /15/2017 Additional Comments I think once ih10 is completed many of the current issues would subside /15/2017 Additional Comments I believe the top priority is to be preserving the beauty of our beautiful hill country-old oak trees, caves, parks etc. We need to preserve the beauty that makes the hill country! /15/2017 Additional Comments Highways should be northwest of boerne. More people will be moving there so get ahead of the traffic /16/2017 Additional Comments I live in Kendall Pointe. I don t want traffic coming through my neighborhood.

Make 46 four lanes from east of Ralph Fair would make the most sense, looping north. The questions use will slant the answers to what you want. Move traffic, especially truck traffic, out of downtown and route it in a beltway around Boerne that will also accommodate increasing traffic over the next 5-10 years.

I think the most important "fix" for the traffic congestion in Boerne is to have roads that go around the center of town. Too many homes are being built along SH46 East which has caused the terrible congestion on it. A-60

You're just shifting the problem. We can wait on 46 or wait in traffic on I10, what's the difference? I have lived in Boerne and worked in San Antonio for 13 years and traffic in Boerne is rarely an issue for me. If the goal is to anticipate future growth and congestion, then I would suggest locating new east and west routes further out from Boerne Southeast options are a disaster. Stop the relentless development and you won't need so many roads. The town is turning into Stone Oak- one big mall and parking lot. It needs to stop.

Again, I believe the middle loop around Boerne is the most practical option, getting the most traffic out of and around Boerne with the least amount of impact to residents and the natural beauty of the hill country.

Creating more roads/loops just really only means creating the opportunity for more high density housing, junky strip malls, and half-vacant "professional" bldgs. The loops will come; keep them to a minimum, in # and length All three of the southwest concepts cross my land. The fact that all options impact a single landowner is inequitable. Seems like working through these types of growth challenges are more important than a new city hall...cart before the horse the inner loop option is best to limit environmental impact and does not create additional access point to I10 (which creates bottlenecks on hwy) The SE middle and SE outer options, should be eliminated. Point being, developers should pay for their development's access to IH10 if they so choose it. Eminent domain should NOT be used to subsidize developers and commercial enterprise! /27/2017 Additional Comments I use 46 for commute to work, school and local shop/dining /27/2017 Additional Comments inner concept is great and very necessary. outer concept is unnecessary and impractical /27/2017 Additional Comments Long-term members of the Boerne community should not have their neighborhoods disrupted /27/2017 Additional Comments /27/2017 Additional Comments /27/2017 Additional Comments /27/2017 Additional Comments /28/2017 Additional Comments This survey is very slanted to the get the high dollar subdivisions and enviromentally sensitive areas to vote not in my back yard!!! Generally speaking, road construction might be more useful and efficient if directed in south-easterly direction towards Hiway 10. The north portions of Boerne/Kendall are acerage propteries desireable for the bucolic/country Texas living. If y all go the route of the SE inner loop it s going to be a fight you don t want to get into please look at other options The traffic from 46 east should be routed down to at least Deitz Elkhorn to keep it away fron our schoolos. I believe a larger loop is a better approach due to the degree of anticipated growth. Avoid Cascade Caverns due to potential environmental issues (sinkholes, aquifer impact) /28/2017 Additional Comments We dont need increased road construction and population growth /28/2017 Additional Comments /28/2017 Additional Comments /28/2017 Additional Comments I live near Casade Caverns PLEASE do not consider cutting through the cascade caverns area. This was brought up ten years ago by TXDOT and was shut down and we were told it was NOT going to happen, ever! 3351 provides access to the south toward San Antonio. Other routes i chose seem to provide access to inner city at least cost, minimal impact to environment and provides short route toward the I-10 to Kerrville /28/2017 Additional Comments Need to bypass the Champion High School area to get to main street from 46 A-63

83 /28/2017 Additional Comments I think we should keep traffic close to IH 10 not spread it around the county /28/2017 Additional Comments Only route into Boerne for all ativities from work, doctor, shopping etc /28/2017 Additional Comments San Antonio has a loop that has not solved its traffic congestion problems, why would a loop do any different here? Transportation is not just about moving private vehicles, but moving people /28/2017 Additional Comments Building a new home on SH 46 (Jan. '18occupancy) /29/2017 Additional Comments I also use SH46 to shop in Boerne which is my closest town. And I use it because I live off SH /29/2017 Additional Comments Kendall County will continue grow and the roadway solutions need to take this into account. The inner loops will be ineffective in the long term, thus a waste of taxpayer money /29/2017 Additional Comments Taking the pressure off of 46 seems really important /29/2017 Additional Comments Any new route should be the farthest removed from existing development. This would be a longer term solution /30/2017 Additional Comments Big concern about water to support all these future homes /30/2017 Additional Comments /30/2017 Additional Comments The majority of all the traffic issues are south of Boerne on IH10. The new "on ramp / off ramp access roads" are causing the backups. People are using them as lanes, and causing the main lanes to slow when they merge back in. I'm adament about traffic flow enhancement during construction. Traffic in the greater Boerne area is heavy and has been made worse by a lack of consideration of flow during construction. A few $100K of minor, temporary paving at 543 was needed /30/2017 Additional Comments There is no reason to disrupt Boerne for a loop, but the improvements to 46 are needed /1/2017 Additional Comments Boerne waited for 20yrs and have done very little. We are just a small town with traffic problems. Deal with it. I expect non of this to happen. truth be told, it's really not that bad /1/2017 Additional Comments The impact to residents on ammann road would be significant and affects hundreds that live here /2/2017 Additional Comments In addition to work commute, 46 is used as primary route for errands, shopping, appointments, etc /2/2017 Additional Comments Widen SR#3351 and save the Cascade Cavern wildlife and nearby ranches. No Toll Roads!!! /3/2017 Additional Comments If the state of Texas and Kendall County were competent this wouldn't be an issue. Unbridled development should never proceed infrastructure. Developers buy land, build monstrous subdivisions and the existing taxpayers foot the bill. Just ignorant /4/2017 Additional Comments New residential developments should cease until the future infrastructure issue is settled /4/2017 Additional Comments Travel SH 46 to visit family. A-64

84 /4/2017 Additional Comments I hate the progress and all the new development, if the powers that be would just say no eventually this area would lose its appeal and the Californians would go corrupt someone elses town A-65
